  • My latest and greatest find!! (12/2/09)
    • I found an on-line notetaker that is so much better for students than the outline maker in word. This allows them to actually click on the box that each set of information belong to, so they don't have to figure out when to 'tab' over.

NEW: Click on the language lab link to hear our true story of the 3 little pigs! Read by Mikaylee, Emily, and Meghan.

UPDATE: Students in Mrs. Thompson's language lab classes have been taking part in an on-line blog called the "lit line"with other schools around the United States. We are currently blogging with a class from Grand Rapids and another from Iowa. This wiki gives students a chance to talk about what they are reading, and they can make suggestions about books that they feel other students should read.
Pros of the Lit-Line:
- Engaging
- Continues to work on typing skills
- Comprehension
- Helps instill a passion for reading
- Gives students a chance to critique books
- Develops good writing skills
- Builds literacy conversations
